Hey McKinley, get out of the park,
There's gonna be a party at the CO-OP after dark. (Whee!)

Watch out baby, it might hit you at the CO-OP.
We got a 9 pound cheese block at the CO-OP.

At the co-op I eat good grub,

She's so divine.
Turpentine.
A pulp emission, a used transmission.
A cloudy day by the bay
Talking about elite Manilla, alright.
Green foam.
All alone.
Trailer home, it's home grown,
Crow bone, chromosome,
Talking about baby's in black, alright.
She said she was from the elite, (Elite!)
She said it, she said it all night, (All night!)
She said she was from the elite, (Elite!)
She said it. (Now! 1-2-3-4!)

Bright Lights

|

The night is dark, the rain comes down.
My baby's driving on the backside of town.
I know she'll be here, no need to fear.
Anticipating because I'm waiting for those
Bright lights
Coming down the street
Coming to get me,
Yeah only me.
Well I've been waiting all of the day.
And now it's dark and baby's on her way.
Her engine's roaring, full steam ahead.
She's driving me crazy, outside my head.
I'm talking 'bout those bright lights
Coming down the street
Coming to get me,
Yeah only me.
Staring out my window, shutters are wide open,
Staring at the moon, baby will be here soon.
I'm talking 'bout those bright lights
Coming down the street
Coming to get me,
Yeah only me.
Well I'm a' talking 'bout those bright lights...

01:25
|

She don't love me. She don't love me.
She won't even eat my food,
She won't even call me dude,
'Cause she don't love me.
She don't love me. She don't love me.
She won't even eat my beans,
She knows just what that means,
'Cause she don't love me.
She don't like roller-skating,
She don't like serenading,
She don't even want my mating,
'Cause she don't a want my mating,
'Cause she don't love me. 'Cause she don't love me.
She won't even be my pal,
She won't even be my gal,
'Cause she don't love me.
I think that she loves you,
I don't think that is true,
I saw a picture of you,
In her living room.
'Cause she don't love me. She don't love me.
She don't, she don't, she don't love me,
She don't, she don't, she don't love me,
No, she don't love me.

All my friends are putting me down with the crazy things they do.
I say “hello” I say “good bye” and they just say “au revoir(do)”
And it’s making me mad so mad mad
It’s making me mad so mad so mad so mad
Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are turning Parisian.
Invite ’em to my house to drink some brew and watch old Roger Maris
They got a corkscrew and a bottle of champagne
And they’re singing “I love Paris”
“In the summer, winter, springtime and fall”
“When it likes to sizzle”
“When always drizzles”
Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are turning Parisian.
Brian changed his name is Jacque
And Virgil’s got shit on his socks
John says he’s doing “tres bon” eating finger lickin’ “chickqueon”
And it’s making me mad so mad mad
It’s making me mad so mad mad so mad
Mr. Doctor I think i got amnesia cause all my friends are...
Turning Parisian.

Freeway
01:08
|
|||
Fell in love on the freeway today,
Dodge Charger was a coming my way.
Looked in the rear-view mirror,
And that's when I knew I had to be nearer. GO!
Put on the gas and drove up to her side,
Just to see her face was worth a suicide,
Memorized her license plate and tried to ask her for a date.
I honked my horn in Morse code,
It went a beep beep bop bop dot dot dash.
Spent my life searching for love and there she was.
Spent my life searching for love and there she was.
Golden Gate in a matter of time,
Before I knew it we had crossed the state line,
Circled Central Park until it got dark,
Then we traveled up the coast I think we're looking for sharks,
Took a detour at Colorado Springs,
She would swim and I would sing.
I spent my life searching for love and there she was.
I spent my life searching for love and there she was.
Well, my carburetor won't flow,
Gas getting so low, and my engine is about to blow.
Said, my carburetor won't flow,
Gas getting so low, and my engine is about to blow,
Let it blow.
Spent my life searching for love and there she was.
Spent my life searching for love and there she was.

Trinidad Mon
01:44
|

Flipping through the yearbook I did see
A pretty pretty baby looking up at me
I’ve never seen that face before
And she was only a sophomore
I searched all over the school
Trying to find that jewel
I asked for the attendance sheet
Said she hadn’t been here for a week
Is she gone with the Trinidad Man?
Is she gone away?
I memorized that picture
I had her in my mind
I went to the brain surgeon
And asked if he could find
That girl in my mind
That girl in my mind
That girl in my mind
That girl in all of my mind
Is she gone with the Trinidad Man?
Is she gone away?
I love her love her love her, I love her love her love her, I love her love her love her, I love her
I love her love her love her, I love her love her love her, I love her love her love her, I love her
Is she gone with the Trinidad Man?
Is she gone away?

Everybody's Baby
02:33
|
|||
I sit at home with my head in hand and it lingers,
Why does my baby got a ring on her every finger?
One from the neighbor and two from the boy next door,
Three four and five from the guys from the defensive line.
Mother better talk to your daughter,
'Cause she is everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.
She's everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.
I take her to the football game and everybody knows her name.
5 Goodyear blimps and their reading "Will you marry me Jane?"
Mother better talk to your daughter,
'Cause she is everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.
She's everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.
"I want you to talk to me!"
And don't cha know that I really like a what you do,
But everything you do you do for the whole world too.
Mother better talk to your daughter,
'Cause she is everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.
She's everybody's baby,
She's everybody's girl.

In January,
I saw her walking across the street, her name was Mary,
She had short red hair and a backpack on
With biology, anthropology, psychology, and a lonely heart.
In the library,
I was walking from A to Z, I saw sweet Mary,
She was reading a deposition about
A man who lost his limbic system and now he can't love at all.
Mary, Mary, put down that book and give me a moment with you.
Mary, Mary, just give me one look and tell me you love me too.
Mary, I love you.
I'm not Machiavelli, Tolstoy, and I can't paint like Botticelli.
I'm just a boy from the other side of the tracks
With a tattoo scratched right on my back
And it looks like, baby just like you.
Mary, Mary, I don't get my kicks from spelling dinosaur names, no,
Mary, Mary, if I had to pick, I'd go play tic tac toe, woh woh woh woh,
We could go to a show
And see the Ramones, "Hey Ho! Let's go!"
Eat an ice cream cone o woa woa woa.

Last time I saw you girl you were so tame.
Next time I saw you you were dancing like a hurricane,
You were spinning like a top, shaking like a mop,

Flying through the air like a prima ballerina,
Gonna yell 1-2-3-4 more bar chords!

When you put gum in your best friend’s hair
Put a tack on the teacher’s chair
Push your little sister down the stairs
What do you get?
When you knock down the neighbor’s chimes
Steal a quarter from the March of Dimes
Speak out for the mimes.
What do you get?
When you put sand in your dad’s lube
Call your best friend a goob
Write a song called “Hey Jude”

You never call and it's all my fault.
You ask for a milkshake and I made you a malt.
And now I cry myself to sleep 'cause I'm in love with a total creep.
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love with a 2 bit baby
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love and I can't go on.
She calls me on the phone, she says "Hi Dudley,"
My name is Bob but at least she don't call me Mutley.
She's the insecticide that's gonna kill my family tree,
If she gets close enough it's poison ivy...
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love with a 2 bit baby
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love and I can't go on.
Whoever said love was heaven sent,
Never paid a dime at the pearly gates rent on lent.
Uh-uh.
Bop Bop, Buh Buh Buh Bop Bop,
Bop Bop, Buh Buh Buh Bop Bop, Oh bop
Bop Bop, Buh Buh Buh Bop Bop (Bop Bop!)
She's like a shirt without any sleeves,
She shakes my tree and down come my leaves,
And now she's raking me apart,
First the tomatoes and now it's my heart...
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love with a 2 bit baby
Oh no, falling in love, falling in love and I can't go on.

Sometimes
01:29
|

Frank never did nothing wrong in his life,
Then he fell in love with Ms. Right,
Now every night he's doing the pogo ,
And everywhere they go it's something au go go.
She worked at the high sierra,
Said she wanted to go to the Riviera,
So he went to France, put it in his car,
And every single night they're eating caviar. Go!
Sometimes I wonder what makes a man lose his mind,
Then I know the answer when I see her passing by.
Is it over?
No 'cause Lance is in a trance,
Eddy's going steady,
Eddy's brother, Freddie is going out with Betty,
And Chris is in eternal bliss,
Ever since he kissed those luscious lips.
Skip has flipped,
Drew's unglued,
Bob quit his job just to go out with Sue,
And Don Ho's on the television,
Kissing all the girls at 7-11. Go!
Sometimes I wonder what makes a man lose his mind,
Then I know the answer when I see her passing by.
One more time!
Sometimes I wonder what makes a man lose his mind,
Then I know the answer when I see her passing by.

She’s got a smile like the Mona Lisa
And that’s why she’s my favorite piece of
Art, when i see her i start appraising
Wonder if her value’s raising.
I have a history
Of falling in love too easily
A girl with her sanity
Drives me to Kalamazoo
I took a trip when i kissed her lips
I flew outta DC on a 707
Took a seat in the 1rst class section
Caught my plane at the love connection
I feel so happy
Got myself a window seat
Peanuts and a magazine
And a stewardess who looks just like you
Arg!
Flight 1555 out of new orleans landing in Kalamazoo in approximately 12:35
Baggage claim at section 4, have a nice trip in Kalamazoo ladies and gentleman
Thank you very much.
